Unicorn Yoga
In this unique first book on yoga, little ones will learn eleven poses as modeled by three unicorns–an instructor and two “assistants” who can more or less accomplish the poses.Yoga is for everybody…and for every body. Big, small, young, old. The practice makes us strong and graceful.Cow Pose instructions are to the point: Roll up onto your hands and knees and take a deep breath in through your nose. Drop your belly, lift your tail, and look up. What child won’t love lifting his tail??Forward-Fold Pose provides interesting challenges for unicorns and kids.And then of course, afterward, everyone gets to rest in Relaxation Pose.The back matter includes information and definitions. Unicorn Yoga is written by the mother and daughter team, Gina Cascone and Bryony Williams Sheppard. I wondered about their choice of subject material, and found the answer on their website:”Because yoga provides so many benefits, it seems only logical to introduce the practice to children as early as possible. So, we approached our editor with a picture book to do just that. She shared it with the wonderfully creative team at Sleeping Bear Press and came back to us with the idea that unicorns might encourage children to become engaged.The concept was not as far-fetched as our editor feared we might find it. After all, both yogis and unicorns are joyful, playful, and magical. There is an even more concrete correlation. In the Indus River Valley, in India, five-thousand-year-old bronze seals have been found; some depicting yogis and some depicting unicorns.”The fun illustrations are by Jennifer Sattler, another fine illustrator.

Yoga poses with cute illustrations
This is a great book of yoga poses for kids! And itâs cute – I always love Jennifer Sattlerâs illustrations. There are 11 yoga poses with kid-friendly instructions and cute unicorns showing how the poses work (mostly! Ha). This could either be a good introduction to yoga for kids or a new routine for experienced kids! My boys and I tried it out and had lots of fun while exercising!
